Entering this second-floor home, you are greeted by an airy space with vaulted ceilings (no one living above) and natural wood accents creating an inviting ambiance and seamless connection to the beauty of the tropical gardens. Plus you'll love the peace of mind that only elevated living can provide. This thoughtfully designed, open-concept layout seamlessly blends the vaulted great room with the wall-to-wall glass sliders, framing the picturesque views. Unwind on the screened balcony overlooking the bay or the open-air balcony off the kitchen, each providing a private oasis to soak in the serene surroundings.

Banyan Bay is a very well-maintained community having passed its milestone inspection and obtaining recertification for another 10 years. It allows rentals up to 4/year with a one month minimum lease period, providing a wonderful opportunity for rental income yet maintaining the quiet, residential feel of the community. For your enjoyment, Banyan Bay has resort-style amenities including a heated pool, deeded beach directly across the street at the gulf-side portion of Banyan Bay, complimentary beach and pool chaises, on-site tennis and pickleball, day dock, fishing pier, kayaking, and a clubhouse with fitness center, catering kitchen, and gathering hall for entertaining.

When venturing beyond your personal oasis, this condo has an enviable location just minutes from the restaurants and water sport activities of Anna Maria Island to the north plus the charming restaurants, shops and cultural activities of St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota to the south.
